Apartment Complex Injuries

Michigan Apartment Complex Injury Attorneys

Tenants and visitors at apartment complexes have a right to reasonably safe premises. When landlords and property management companies neglect maintenance, fail to provide adequate security, or allow dangerous conditions to persist, they can be held liable for resulting injuries.

Koussan Law represents victims of apartment complex injuries throughout Michigan, including slip and falls, assaults due to negligent security, toxic exposure, structural failures, and other dangerous conditions.

Common Apartment Complex Injury Claims

Dangerous stairways and hallways with inadequate lighting, icy sidewalks and parking lots not properly cleared, broken locks and insufficient security that lead to assaults, mold and lead paint exposure, fire hazards from faulty electrical systems, and swimming pool accidents are among the most common claims against apartment complexes.

Landlord Liability Under Michigan Law

Michigan law requires landlords to maintain rental properties in a fit and habitable condition. This includes keeping common areas safe, making timely repairs, providing adequate security in areas with known criminal activity, and complying with building codes. When landlords fail these duties and someone is injured, they can be held liable for damages.
